Category D Insurance Loss. Vehicle Damaged But Repairable - Insurer Decided Not To Repair
LANCIA DELTA HF
14/10/2015
The vendor has provided the following:
F55JSO was first registered on the 1st January 1989 by Tower Garage, Lancia main dealer in Aberdeen, Scotland. Making this particular car a very rare UK-supplied 8V Integrale
The current owner first bought the car in 1992 from Pebley Beach Lancia main dealer in Swindon, Wiltshire, and to this day the car still retains the original Pebley Beach Lancia rear window sticker, tax disc holder and number plates. The current owner then sold the car sometime later and always regretted it.
By amazing chance in 2004, the current owner came across his old car F55JSO for sale but in need of some recommissioning, and with no hesitation he purchased the car for a second time
The car was sent to Tanc Barratt, the renowned Integrale specialist in the UK. Tanc fully recommissioned the car, and it first went back on the road in 2008, back in its original condition when the owner first bought the car in 1992
The car did then unfortunately suffer some accident damage in 2015 to the offside rear quarter and door, and although it was not extensive or serious damage, the car is now listed as a category D insurance loss
The car was once again sent to Tanc Barratt for the repair work to be carried out, and this is all documented in the history file that accompanies the car and has been done to an incredibly high standard
At the same time, a lot of mechanical recommissioning took place, which included a full engine overhaul, new timing belt and new clutch; once again, all of this work is documented.
In total, the invoices for the work carried out on this car during the time of the current ownership since 2004 total more than £35000
In 2025 the car underwent a suspension overhaul at a cost of £2500, and the car has just been freshly serviced
The car has always been garaged and only occasionally used, and only in dry weather. Having covered just 5000 kms in the last 5 years, the total mileage for the car now is 150,000 kms
If anyone asks why the car is a category D insurance loss, this is the reason. The impact was only low speed and did not involve another car it was a fence and I was driving the car. It damaged the offside rear door, quarter panel, rear bumper and sill trim. Adrian Flux who were insuring the car at the time said that as new replacement panels were not available and even good quality used replacement parts were difficult to source they were writing the car off. So bizarrely they wrote the car off, gave me the car back plus an amount of money. I sent the car to Tanc Barrat, and Tanc was easily able to repair the vehicle which is all listed in the history file that you have with the car.
